At Messiah Village near Harrisburg, visitors began arriving in the morning, with no time limits on visits.
“We are really excited to welcome families back. It’s been a long time. The residents and the families really need this connection,” said Katie Andreano, the communications manager at Messiah Lifeways, which has about 250 residents in its skilled nursing and personal care units.
For most long-term care residents, the coming days will mark their first opportunity for close contact with family or friends since Pennsylvania facilities were locked down by the state’s order a little more than a year ago.
